A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I've never understood how Jellyfin vs Plex can be so polarizing

[–] 1hitsong@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 day ago

I work on Jellyfin. I once posted saying Plex is not a competitor because we are not in a race, so there is no such thing as "winning."

So... many... angry... responses.

I don't get it either. Most of us just want to help by signaling there is an alternative but maybe people are resistant to let go because they paid for Plex, I think.
